Uke Geeks is a set of free ukulele song editing tools that convert “plain text” lyrics and chord names into easy-to-read songsheets with clear chord diagrams (“fingering charts”) and provides you lots of customization options. So, rather than reading this boring description why not test drive the editor?

Goodness gracious me, Jim Carey has updated his 2000+ song songbook for ukulele. You can get it from his amazing website here in pdf form.

(Though if you are online it is worth looking at them on his website because you can transpose any song into any key, change the chord diagrams if you are left-handed, change what instrument you are using etc. It’s a real piece of work.)

Woo-hoo! Thanks to possibly some initial miscommunication, then my inability to leave a nagging issue alone without constantly worrying at it, and then Tony-Wrangler-Of-The-Tech kindly patching my personal shortcomings, Book Zero now has a contents page you can click to jump straight to the song you want, and if your PDF reader shows bookmarks – which it does – all the songs show up there too.

It’s great. This is version 7. The cover has blue writing. If yours is different then it won’t support this sorcery.
